<SOLVED> Error when entering locale.conf data

My M2.2280 SSD died, and I had to reinstall Arch. I didn't realize it at the time, but I made a typo in the locale.conf file. I typed enUS.UTF-8 not en_US.UTF-8.
I have tried
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
localectl set-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Current output of localectl

System Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8
    VC Keymap: (unset)         
   X11 Layout: (unset)     

However, Aisleriot fails to start unless I use the command specifying the correct locale......

LANG=en_US.UTF-8 sol

Lastly, when I start GoldenCheetah the log has the following
"Fontconfig warning: ignoring enUS.UTF-8: not a valid language tag"

Sorry about the formatting, best I could figure out.

Thanks for any and all assistance,

Craig

<SOLUTION>
delete KDE file ~/.config/plasma-localerc
